Lower contact resistance than comparable products

G9KC, OMRON's four-pole power relay - now available from Rutronik

by gabi

With the G9KC, Rutronik is adding another product from OMRON’s power relay portfolio to its range. The four-pole component has a capacity of 480 VAC at 40 A and a low initial contact resistance of maximum 6 mΩ. They can optionally be equipped with a Form B auxiliary contact, which ensures reliable fault detection. The power relay outperforms comparable products with its exceptionally low contact resistance and also impresses with its high short-circuit resistance in accordance with IEC62955. The components are therefore particularly suitable for use in 3-phase EV charging stations, especially for the European market, and are available at www.rutronik24.com.

The PCB relay has four poles, a contact resistance and has an optional auxiliary contact for reliable fault detection in accordance with the IEC60947-4-1 mirror contact requirement. Their failure rate (level M – reference value) is 100 mA at 24 VDC for the main contact and 10 mA at 5 VDC for the auxiliary contact. The relays also score points with their high short-circuit resistance in accordance with IEC62955.

The components operate reliably at an ambient temperature of -40 °C to +85 °C (without icing or condensation). Their compact dimensions are 35 mm (width) x 58 mm (length) x 47 mm (height) with a contact gap of 3.6 mm (min.).

They are particularly suitable for use in 3-phase EVSE mode 3 (EV charging stations) and are applicable to the currently highest models with 22 kW (32 A, 3-phase 400 VAC) – especially for the EU market.

Benefits at a glance:

  • 4-pole 40 A relay
  • Low initial contact resistance of 6 mΩ max.
  • High short-circuit resistance in accordance with IEC62955
  • Low power consumption of the coil: approx. 613 mW with holding voltage 35%
  • Compact form factor
  • Auxiliary contact in accordance with IEC60947-4-1 Mirror contact requirement (optional)

Application examples:

  • 3-phase EVSE mode 3 (EV charging station), especially for the EU market
  • Inverters for solar and energy storage
  • Uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
